Well....

What can you say about today's show? It was one where there wasn't a moment to breathe, my head is spinning from everything that happened and all the opinions put forth! Thanks for everyone for their calls and major apologies for the long wait and even bigger apologies for those who tried to get on but couldn't.

So..what do you think about this "deal"? Is it a deal or what? I interview Geoff Regan yesterday afternoon and he had a great line: "Harper has killed the accord and MacDonald has agreed to be a pallbearer".

So many conflicting opinions about what went down yesterday, but not suprisingly, I'm getting a cynical vibe from the listeners. They are more on the side of Danny Williams than Rodney MacDonald on this one. I think the days of blindly trusting leaders are long over and Nova Scotians have really seen what Harper is made of on this issue. He claims we are getting what we asked for, but are we?

It was a good chat with John Hamm and Russell MacLellan today. The callers made so many good points though, in terms of both leaders not really practicing what they are now preaching when they were in power, especially Richard on Boularderie island. What a great e-mail, Richard!

When Rick was speaking to the reporter from VOCM about the fact Danny Williams was "enraged" over what went down with the Accord yesterday, I couldn't help but think when isn't Danny Williams outraged?

I know I might seem biased, but I love when Rick talks to Elizabeth May! She just speaks in common sense terms and makes sense! She was very complimentary towards Bill Casey.....I'm sure she would be thrilled if Bill decided to go with the Green party. What did you think about the Bill Casey-Gerald Keddy smackdown during hour number 1? I thought it was incredibly confusing! Michel Sampson had a good line at the end of the hour though. He said "As a Liberal I find it incredibly satisfying to see two Tories fighting." Bill will be running as an independent in the next election. Harper showed us something for sure yesterday - he is petty and petulant and you better believe if Nova Scotians don't embrace this deal, he will totally have it out for us, even more than he already does!

Hey..we have the Rodenhiser in hour number 1 tomorrow...and then we're going to do a little bit of SPORTSTALK in hour number 2 with Cecil! I'm so excited, I hope Joan calls to bug Cecil, it's been far too long.

Have a great Thursday!

Cheers,

Amber

Hi there Amber....as usual you are lookin great.

Today's show was excellent..the first part with Samson was like a comedy..hes another looser...put him with the other 2 from the second hour and you have Larry, Daryll and Daryll...

Politicans going around begging people to please vote. Having the right to vote isn't the only part of democracy.

As usual John Hammbone just kept saying the samething...Isn't it great that we live in a democracy where people can write letters to the editor or use talk shows to express their concerns...what a croc!!!!

Russel McLellan is another turn coat Caper politican...he did nothing when he was in Ottawa and was ousted by his own party when he was Premier. Remember , it was the Liberals who started this whole strip mining sceme to take care of his Liberal friends, Brogan Mining and then had to allow Pioneer Coal, Chisholm to come onto Boularderie Island and strip mine in the 80s. and of course when Hammbone came in he had to do the same for his Tory friend, John Chisholm, but gave nothing to Brogans...and of course both companies over their period of time strip mining scarred Boularderie Island to the point that it can never be recovered.

People lost their wells during that time and the provincial government did nothing to help the people get their water back. Both John Hamm and Russel Mac knew this...but they showed no concern.

These guys are hypocrites at the highest level.

And again thanks to Rick for reading my e mail on the air...I don't think he read it all...the hypocrite part.
I know I had to beg and maybe bribery works....what size white socks does Rick wear ?

Again, it was a great show.
Thanks
